This thing definitely gets the heart rate up without making you feel anxious if that makes any sense. Simply SENSATIONAL sports car.
Sounds like a blast. But to confirm, no A/C and no radio? Also, limited production or not?

AC is a no-cost option. I think it comes standard with radio (which maybe can be deleted), but the B&W upgraded hifi is available at additional cost. I posted the full option list with prices in a post above in this thread - here it is again in case you missed it.

Production is only limited in time, not number. The guys at McLaren Denver will be happy to take your order at MSRP (but only if you let me drive yours )

Car has infotainment system that can be upgraded, it comes with AC and is NOT a limited production car. My belief is you will be able to order it until the new Sport series (620S Coupe) comes out and completely blows it out of the water performance wise but maybe not feel and excitement - just like the 720S did to the 675LT in the Super series (although the 675 was limited to 500 coupes + 500 spiders + approx 20 special editions one-offs)

Finally got to my PC so can show a few photos of the best looking 600LT yet produced - it is a MSO special and it looks spectacular. This was on the concept lawn at Pebble beach and when you saw the white LT with the blue accents at the McLaren hospitality tent it almost looked ordinary by comparison!!

I’m glad to see McLaren is getting the respect it deserves. I’ve read and heard that the 600LT experience is similar to the 675LT’s, which was an under appreciated car in my opinion. Anyone that’s driven or owned one (myself included) knows how special and engaging it really is. The 720 based LT will be an absolute monster and likely go down in history as the highest performance series production supercar of the pre-hybrid/electric era.

That roof scoop looks tacked-on. I'd pay extra for the delete option. Getting paid to do it seems like a no-brainer.
